Vdara Spa & Hotel Shuttles

A modern beacon of design resting on the west side of Las Vegas Boulevard, Vdara Hotel and Spa offers a vibrant array of decor that flows from vibrant sundeck furniture to an indoor garden lobby. Rooms feature green-hue accents paired with earth-tone couches and wooden headboards, suites adding a bit more luxury through multi-seating kitchen bars and chandelier-draped dining room tables. On-site amenities include a handful of eastern restaurants as well as various poolside cabanas and lounge chairs - and although no sort of public transportation or shuttle service is offered in or around the hotel, guests are encouraged to book a ride of their own, keeping things relaxed with a private sedan, van or SUV rental, or staying efficient with a simple drop off courtesy of taxis, local personal drivers and stretched limousines as perfect for tours of The Strip as flights to McCarran International.

A scenic outdoor walkway bridges the hotel with other nearby resorts, making for easy adventures along Las Vegas Boulevard. Grab breakfast from a couple of on-site cafes before heading out, choosing between expected favorites at Starbucks or cool American eats at Market Cafe Vdara. Across the street is an often overseen art piece dubbed The Big Edge, famous for its image of hundreds of kayaks and canoes floating as an impossible cluster. Talk about the day’s sights with on-site eats at the end of the night, the hotel’s best option being Vice Versa Patio & Lounge, home to a breezy patio ambiance paired with small but stylish dishes. Head to the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens next door for a look at exotic flora afterward, also considering actual escapes into the wild with self-guided tours across the roaming hills of Red Rock Canyon.
